Infinitum has once again won a prestigious R&D 100 award! The innovative Aircore EC Motor for Data Centers was recognized for its ability to improve the efficiency and sustainability of data centers. Energy conservation and sustainability in data centers is more critical than ever. By 2030, data centers could consume 9% of U.S. electricity generation, which is more than double today’s usage, according to the Electric Power Research Institute. In data center settings, Infinitum’s motors averaged 20% reduction in emissions, making them more efficient and cost effective than conventional alternatives. Go Team Infinitum!

Singtel and NVIDIA Join Forces for Green, AI-Ready Data Centers. Singtel is transitioning to greener, AI-ready data centers by partnering with Nvidia. They plan to close five older data centers and move customers to a new facility in Tuas, focusing on high-efficiency AI infrastructure. This new data center, DC Tuas, will feature advanced liquid cooling systems and a lower power usage effectiveness (PUE) rating, making it one of the most efficient in the industry. Additionally, Singtel aims to integrate this facility with submarine cable networks and collaborate with various partners for renewable energy solutions, aligning with their goal of achieving operational net-zero emissions by 2028. This strategic move positions Singtel as a key player in sustainable and high-performance AI data hosting in South-east Asia.

EVERY MONTH YOUR HPC STATION MIGHT LOSE REVENUE Availability is not a nice-to-have for the customer, it's hard business logic for return on investment. This is why charging network operators like Atlante, bp pulse , Allego, TotalEnergies, Shell Recharge, Fastned, CITYWATT GmbH always need a close tracking on operational excellence. Otherwise we would see: 1. More stations are built 2. More CAPEX is allocated 3. More customer charge 4. More failures happen 5. More time spent analysing each failure 6. More failures pile up 7. More hotline calls 8. More resources are needed to resolve all the failures. WHAT HAPPENS NEXT: - Less billable charging sessions are completed - Less customers trust the operator of the network - Less revenue generated for ROI WHERE EVERCHARGE CAN HELP: 𝐋𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞: Powerful analytics, root cause analysis and pattern recognition through machine learning 𝐋𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐞: Not only resolve existing failures quickly, but predict new outages with #AI 𝐋𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭: Automation takes action so you don't have to. #AI #EV #Evercharge #Technology #Charging #Infrastructure #Innovation #EVcharging #PredictiveMaintenance #eMobilität #eMobility #Ladeinfrastruktur #Greentech #Sustainability #Future #eMobilität #eMobility #Ladeinfrastruktur #Greentech #Sustainability #Future #moreplugs

In our quest for a greener future, technology is playing an instrumental role. Recently, Nokia has introduced its Virtual Power Plant (VPP) Controller Software, aiming to reduce energy usage, carbon emissions, and costs in mobile networks. The brilliance of this technology lies in its ability to get the maximum utility out of backup cell tower batteries at base station sites. Nokia's solution allows for seamless transitions between grid power and backup batteries, which could considerably lower energy expenses in electricity spot markets for operators. But that's not all - this tech enables operators to generate revenue in grid frequency balancing markets while simultaneously reducing their carbon footprint. Such innovations are a testament to the type of creative problem-solving needed to address environmental concerns while ensuring business viability. The software also integrates nicely with renewable energy sources like solar power, reducing CO2 emissions even further. By selling excess power to the grid, operators can become ‘virtual power plants’ and develop a new revenue source. Nokia continues to redefine the role of technology in energy efficiency, introducing measures that not only reduce consumption but also create new revenue streams, making the pursuit of sustainability an economically viable journey. What other ways can technology be harnessed to facilitate the transition towards a greener future? #Nokia #Sustainability #GreenTech #Innovation #TechForGood #RenewableEnergy #CarbonFootprint

Nokia has been chosen by illwerke vkw AG, a prominent energy and telecom provider in Vorarlberg, Austria, to deploy an advanced optical transport solution. This initiative is set to modernize illwerke vkw AG's network infrastructure, enhancing its capacity to support 400G wavelengths and beyond, crucial for accommodating rapidly growing demand. illwerke vkw AG, recognized for its commitment to renewable energy, caters to around 200,000 customers and provides telecom services to mobile network operators. By integrating Nokia's Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) and Photonic Service Engine (PSE) technology, the new network will span 15 sites, providing robust mobile backhaul and fronthaul transport services. Christoph Märk, Head of IT at illwerke vkw AG, highlighted the strategic importance of this partnership with Nokia, emphasizing its role in enabling the company to meet increasing capacity demands while maintaining high service quality. Matthieu Bourguignon, Senior VP and Head of Europe at Nokia’s Network Infrastructure Business, noted that this project not only meets current needs but also prepares illwerke vkw AG for future challenges, ensuring sustainability and efficiency in their operations.

The sun is rising on a new day in the infrastructure world. Here are a few big themes heard in the the halls and during keynotes at Capacity Media MetroConnect 2024. 1. If you are not focused on renewable energy for your data centers you will be in trouble in three years. US Signal agrees: https://lnkd.in/g_bTkrtz 2. Be diligent with capital. Don’t build and hope they come, spend every dollar with purpose and commitment as cash is not free anymore. 3. AI is a new wall for everyone to manuver up or around. Don’t make short sighted decisions as this will be a marathon, not a sprint. 4. Mega campuses are going to be met with challenges from regulators, suppliers (generators, cooling, power company), and time restrictions. Small market data centers will be faster to build and will become the path for latency sensitive workloads and AI inference. #cloud #datacenter #infrastructure #fiber #innovation #metroconnect #metroconnectusa

As AI tools intensify the demand on data centers worldwide, utilities are scrambling to supply enough electricity to fuel these data centers. Brian Janous, an Advisory Board Member at LineVision and Co-Founder of Cloverleaf Infrastructure, recently joined the Carbon Copy podcast to address this issue. While the construction of more power plants is essential for the long term, Brian says that right now we need to better optimize the power grid system currently in place to meet the flourishing electricity demand. Of note, as AI continually increases data generation and collection, these new efficiencies create even more computing demand and exacerbate the strain on the power grid. Grid-enhancing technologies, such as LineVision’s dynamic line rating solutions, can provide more intelligence to the grid and allow utilities to unlock more power capacity in their existing systems versus building new infrastructure.
